OOC post: Not Quite Damsels, Definite Distress

[justice_is_blond]

Trying something a little different, by having a plotting post up that can be used alongside/simultaneous with the log since the characters involved don't have much information to work with.

The team going is Nathaniel, Teren, Zevran, Ciri, Velanna, Merrill, Jamie, and Cyril.

What they know: Anders and Alistair went off to deal with a small Darkspawn nest and haven't been in contact since around the time they arrived in the village, about five days ago. They didn't return yesterday.

The village is supposed to be more mages than anything else, according to Inquisition scouts, somewhat closed-off and seeking privacy, though not entirely unwelcoming. It's smaller, built with the remains of a village wiped out during the Fifth Blight.

Diplomacy? Attacking? What's being leaned toward?

Anything you want

[justice_is_blond]

Have an idea? Want to do something specific but need someone else to team up with your character? Pop it in here.

Nathaniel is totally unbiased here, completely impartial to all the things. No stakes in this at all.

He wants to either use force or subterfuge. Get the prisoners out ASAP. No fudging around with talking.

Will cooler heads please prevail?

[chainlightning]

Nathaniel do you really think Anders wants you to kill and/or otherwise upset all these mages? Do you? DO YOU?

Anders is the idiot who is missing he doesn't get a say in how we deal with things.

[chainlightning]

he's one of the idiots who is missing

velanna we can't just murder everyone until they try to murder us first okok

[failedfirst]

But they talk faster if some of them are dead.

[chainlightning]

it can be the backup plan

[failedfirst]

[failedfirst]

fine but i'm saying i told you so if this takes forever and they have time to murder our friends before we get to them.

[wontforgetyou]

So why don't some people talk and some others go try and sneak off as a rescue party?

[doneisdone]

normally Teren is all subterfuge but she's so fukkin mad she would probably barge right up and demand an explanation

aka I'm volunteering to have her barge up to mage guy and demand an explanation, potentially while the others fan out and be threatening
